The most influential women in payments reveal the future of UK fintech in a post-Covid world

Congratulations to Azimo COO Dora Ziambra for inclusion in this year’s list of ‘Most influential women in payments’ according to UKTN.

According to Dora, around 15% of the UK population was living a cashless life before COVID struck. “With digital transactions booming and even the elderly adapting to contactless payments, that figure will be significantly higher now. Even as lockdowns end, it’s the beginning of the end for cash. As digital payments become the norm, consumers will demand instant payments as standard, even when sending money across borders. We’re used to digital services like Uber and Amazon providing light speed gratification – financial services will have to meet the same mark. Consequently, expect to see startling improvements in automated identity verification and compliance technology. This is the area that slows most financial transactions down, so it’s attracting huge investment and innovation.”
